The data we collect and save are treated confidentially and, using appropriate technical and organizational precautions, protected from loss or manipulation as well as from unauthorized access by third parties. Login information exchanged between your computer and us is encrypted. We cannot accept responsibility for any unauthorised access or loss or personal information that is beyond our control.

If you access other sites using the links provided, the operators of these sites may collect information from you which will be used by them in accordance with their privacy policy, which may differ from ours.
7. TRANSFERS OUTSIDE OF THE EEA
Owing to the global nature of the Internet, the information you provide may be transferred in transit to countries outside of the European Economic Area including, for example, our central data storage centre in Canada. By using this website you accept that your information may be transferred outside of the EEA and consent to this. Although some countries outside of the EEA may not have similar privacy protections in place, we will take adequate steps to ensure the security of your information should it be transferred outside of the EEA.
Your personal data may be transferred to other companies within the Tears of Bacchus AG. Some companies within the group may be located outside of the EEA.
8. SOCIAL MEDIA
8.1: Links from Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, SlideShare, Twitter, Xing and YouTube are integrated temporarily on this website. We have implemented the two-stage solution recommended by the data protection authorities. This means that you must first activate the social media link by clicking on a button before any connection to the servers of the social network is established. You can then recommend our content by clicking a second time. Taking the example of Facebook, this means that if you visit our site and select the Facebook link, a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook server is established. Facebook thereby receives the information that you have visited our site, using a specific IP address. If you click on the Facebook “Like” button while you are logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages to your Facebook-profile. Thereby Facebook can correlate your visit to our site with your user account. Only Facebook is responsible for this collection and use of data. For more information, please refer to the Facebook privacy statement which is available at https://en-gb.facebook. com/about/privacy/.
8.2: The functionality of Google+, LinkedIn, SlideShare, Twitter, Xing and YouTube is similar to that of Facebook. Also in this respect, IP addresses are transferred to the respective provider and possibly cookies are sent to your computer. To find out more about the treatment of personal data by each of these providers please refer to their respective privacy statements which are available at http://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ (Google +), https://www.linkedin.com/legal/ privacy-policy (LinkedIn), http://de.slideshare.net/privacy-preview (SlideShare), http://twitter.com/privacy (Twitter), https://www.xing.com/privacy (Xing) and www. youtube.com/static?&template=privacy_guidelines (YouTube).
9. CHANGE TO THE PRIVACY POLICY
Changes to this privacy policy may be required from time to time, due, for example, to the further development of our website or to statutory changes. Tears of Bacchus therefore reserves the right to change the privacy policy at any time with future effect. We therefore recommend that you re-read this privacy policy at regular intervals.
